The other performers for Six Sundays in 2019 are Orquesta GarDel on May 19, Tyson Brothers Band and Mister Felix on May 26 and the Marcus Anderson Band on June 2.<\/p>\n<p>For the past few years, Six Sundays has found a home in E. Carroll Joyner Park with its new amphitheater cover, just completed. But did you know it began on the lawn at the Dr. Calvin Jones House, which at that time housed all the Wake Forest College and town memorabilia that is now in the Wake Forest Historical Museum? That was back in 1993, Ruth Ann Dyer said, and it was organized by the Wake Forest Cultural Arts Association. The same group under a new name is one of the sponsors still. Dyer said, \u201cBy the time Joyner Park was developed, it had long outgrown the museum grounds, and it was time it moved. A truly diverse asset to our community\u2019s cultural enrichment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Longtime association member Barbara Massenburg remembered the fun of \u201cworking the crowd\u201d to sell raffle tickets with Father Bob. \u201cI just love that man. Drew Bridges used to look around his house for things to raffle. Bob Johnson would always donate rose bushes right after HerbFest. We got a lot of takers when Holding Oil donated $50 worth of gasoline. Ruth Ann Dhyer was the force behind the Billy Farmer rifle painting that I won. It was our largest fundraiser that I remember.\u201d Anyone with memories of Sunday afternoons on the lawn welcome to send them to the editor for inclusion in the rest of the articles about Six Sundays.<\/p>\n<p>A variety of food and dessert trucks will be on site for each Six Sundays in Spring concert in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Concert goers are also invited to bring a picnic from home but are reminded alcoholic beverages and gas and charcoal grills are not allowed. Two large charcoal grills are provided on site. Unleashed pets are also prohibited.<\/p>\n<p>Android and iPhone users can have a handy pocket guide to Six Sundays in Spring in the palm of their hands by downloading the Town of Wake Forest app and utilizing the app\u2019s “Six Sundays in Spring” function.
